The spear techniques of the Crimson Flame Battalion were all taught to them by Feng Ning Yan. At the same time, he also attacked out of the blue, his momentum like thunder.
The enemy army that had been lying in ambush for half the night was exhausted and hungry, how could they resist?
All of a sudden, the soldiers of the Southern Wilderness didn't have time to react at all. They screamed miserably as they were stabbed to death one by one by the grain carts.
Li Yuanxiong held onto the wound on his left shoulder, was held by the deputy general, and retreated backwards in a sorry state.
He glared venomously at Feng Ning Yan, cursing, "This little girl, her archery skills are so poisonous!"
Only then did he know that during the first battle, Feng Ning Yan had shot an arrow at Duan Liushao's horse. It wasn't that her arrows were off or lacking in strength, but rather she had shown mercy or purposely intimidated him.
Feng Ning Yan slowly put down her bow. She looked at the corpses of the Southern Army which were gradually piled up in the valley. She raised her gaze and looked at the sky, which was gradually lighting up.
General Si Ma, soldiers of the Southern Yong Pass, bless me, Feng Ning Yan, and take back the Southern Yong Pass!
All the straw on the cart had been thrown to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it had been burnt to ashes. The nearby rattan balls were still burning fiercely, making the mountain road as bright as day.
The Death Soldiers jumped down from the chariots and began to fight with the Southern Wilderness.
Miserable screams, the hissing of war horses, the sounds of swords, spears, and halberds all mixed together.
There were more and more corpses of the Southern Army, but the Southern Army was brimming with energy and fighting spirit.
The more Li Yuanxiong saw, the more he felt a chill in his heart. The distant viewing mirror in his hand clattered to the ground, "Retreat!" "Retreat!"
Tonight's ambush had become a turtle caught in a jar, and it was obvious that their momentum was now gone.
He mounted his horse with the deputy general and fled in panic.
When he looked back, he saw that the mist had already been dyed red. The soldiers he brought with him had only a few followers. The rest had all died under the Southern Ning Army's blades and spears.
The gong sounded for a long time. When the soldiers of the Southern Wilderness heard the signal to retreat, they threw away their helmets and fell to the ground, not choosing a path in their panic.
At this time, Feng Ningyan pulled out the phoenix banner on her back and unfurled it with a hualala sound. It fluttered in the wind as she shouted, "Great Yue's brave warriors! Revenge for the Southern Yong Pass' fallen brothers! Don't let an enemy army go! "
As soon as his voice fell, many soldiers clad in fresh clothes and armor rushed in from the mountain pass, wielding shining swords and dashing forward.
They flanked both sides of the valley and surrounded the Southern Army like dumplings.
Li Yuanxiong urged his horse to retreat to a safe place and led the dozens of guards who had yet to participate in the battle to stand on the mountain ridge, looking down in disappointment.
Seeing that his side had suffered numerous casualties, he gnashed his teeth in anger and slammed his palm against a large tree to the side, causing the leaves to rustle and fall.
Looking at Feng Ningyan who was in a valley away from him, he felt a cold wind blowing against her frail body. However, the murderous aura she was emitting made even him, a mighty general, shiver down his spine.
Jiang Chongming patted his chest to guarantee that the information he received was correct. He said he got it from the people who sold the tea. But now, it seemed that Feng Ningyan had purposely "sold" this information to Jiang Chongming.
This plan was intertwined. Feng Ningyan, a woman, was actually able to come up with such a miraculous plan. Even Sang Huaiyu, the most resourceful and resourceful advisor in the army, could not see through it.
Li Yuanxiong was thirty-two years old and was also a reputable martial general in the imperial court. Now that he was defeated by a sixteen year old girl, it was simply an extraordinary shame and humiliation.
When he came, he had patted his chest and promised to capture Feng Ning Yan alive so that she could be his concubine. Who knew that when five thousand people came, fifty would return.
Even if Feng Ningyan did not kill him, how would he have the face to face with the elders of the Southern Wilderness?
Just then, a loud clear shout came from the other side of the mountain, "Li Yuanxiong! "Listen!"
Li Yuanxiong quickly took a look through the telescope. He saw Feng Ning Yan on horseback, holding onto the 'Phoenix Flag' and shouting towards him.
"I, Feng Ning Yan, respect you as a powerful general, and I will spare your life. Quickly go back and tell that wet behind the ears crown prince of yours, and get the hell back to the Southern Wilderness as soon as possible! Otherwise, I, Feng Ningyan, will lead a huge army of one hundred thousand and raze the capital of the Southern Wilderness, Hao City, to the ground! "
Feng Ningyan rode on a white horse, her silver armor and red robes fluttering in the wind. Her gaze was even colder and sharper than the edge of a sword.
She wanted Li Yuanxiong to tell Duan Liushao in detail about the situation today, and shock him to death!
Only now did Li Yuanxiong know that Feng Ningyan had deliberately let him live so that she wouldn't send people to intercept him …
He was so frustrated that he did not even have the courage to answer them. He turned his horse in frustration and galloped towards the Southern Yongguan.
Behind him, only the defeated soldiers of the Southern Ning Army were left shouting excitedly.
Feng Ning Yan silently looked down. Seeing her soldiers turn around in unison and look at her with extreme worship, her heart was filled with gratification, but not happiness.
The Southern Wilderness' soldiers who had died in the valley also had families and wives. Even if the Southern Tribes could give their families a small amount of support, they had lost their people in the end.
This was the horror of war, and human life was meaningless in the face of it.
She suddenly understood the significance of the Feng family guarding the dragon's teeth for generations.
A hundred thousand soldiers, not to start a war, but to put an end to it.
As long as the army of the Southern Wilderness could not pass through the southern gates of the Kingdom of Yue, the citizens of the Kingdom of Yue would have peace.
She secretly swore to herself that at all costs, she would take back the Southern Yong Pass and drive Duan Liushao back to the Southern Wilderness!
In the meeting room of the Southern Yong Pass's tower.
Li Yuanxiong and Jiang Chongming both knelt on one knee with their heads lowered, not daring to look at Duan Liushao's expression.
"Good!" "Very good!"
Duan Liushao fiercely slammed his palm on the table with a loud bang, scaring the kneeling Jiang Chongming into trembling.
"This battle was almost completely wiped out. Vice Marshal Li, what did you promise me before you left?"
In these two days of confrontation, the Southern Wilderness' army had already suffered over ten thousand losses. How could Duan Liushao not be angry?
Li Yuanxiong did not dare to explain, lowering his head, not daring to reply.
Jiang Chongming braced himself and said, "Your Highness Crown Prince, this was decided by me. This is an unforgivable offense, and I am willing to be punished by martial law …"
Li Yuanxiong knew that Jiang Chongming was from a scholar's background, so how could he stand up to a military club? He puffed out his chest and said, "Yes, I underestimated the enemy, and after deploying the ambush, I thought it would be foolproof. I did not set up a sentry outside the Southern Ning military camp in time to investigate the situation.
Sang Huaiyu watched on from the side, unable to suppress the hatred in Duan Liushao's heart. He knew that Li Yuanxiong and Jiang Chongming would definitely be severely punished this time. It was enough for Jiang Chongming to just lie and report the enemy's death.
However, now was the time to use people. To cut enemies before the battle would be extremely disadvantageous to their side.
He walked forward and bowed, "Your Highness, now is not the time to pursue the blame. It is obvious that Feng Ningyan knew from the very beginning that we would target the grain, which was why she set up this trap. This woman is truly worthy of being called the daughter of the Phoenix's Might. She is swift and decisive. Not to mention Vice Marshal Li and General Jiang, even if it were anyone else, they would have fallen into her trap. "
Only then did Duan Liushao calm down a little. Recalling that the ambush had been his own decision, he ordered Li Yuanxiong and Jiang Chongming to start up.
But before Li Yuanxiong finished speaking, how could he dare to stand up? He lowered his head, not knowing how to convey what Feng Ningyan had said.
Seeing him stutter, Sang Huaiyu thought to herself, apart from losing the war, what else is there to say?
